Christopher Plummer Dead At 91

A Canadian Oscar-winning actor has died at the age of 91.

Christopher Plummer’s wife Elaine confirmed her husband’s passing peacefully just two weeks after suffering a fall in their Connecticut home.

The Toronto born actor won an Academy Award for his performance in the 2010 film Beginners, which made him the oldest-ever Oscar winner in an acting category.

He is survived by his third wife Elaine and daughter, actress Amanda Plummer.

  • Originally from southern Ontario, Jason found his way here and fell in love with the community and music scene of Thunder Bay over twenty years ago. In between various stints on radio, television and writing, Jason is a dad, a partner and (some would consider) a zoo keeper (seriously, he has a LOT of pets).
